Faye and family,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. I'm not sure if you know this, but Frank passed away in October of 2022. We made so many memories together at Ahmed's. You, your brother and sister-in-law and the staff were all such nice people and treated us so kindly. The fact that the food was just the best was a bonus. With love and prayers, Mary Beth Rork
